  • ABG machine/Blood gas analyzer.  It is a test in which the amounts of oxygen and carbon dioxide, as well as the acidity (pH) of the blood, are measured. Acid-base balance is controlled for people who have heart or kidney failure, serious sleep problems, uncontrolled diabetes, or an overdose of medicines. Electrolytes and metabolites also are measured. Arterial blood gas test results may show if lungs are removing enough carbon dioxide, kidneys are working properly or lungs are getting enough oxygen.
  • Biochemistry Analyzer: This medical laboratory equipment designed; to measure various chemicals. Also, other characteristics with minimal humanitarian assistance in several biological samples. The blood and other fluid that are measured are used for the diagnosis of disease.
  • Centrifuge: For separating the density-based fluids, gas, or liquid, a fluid separation device is used. Separation is made by spinning a vessel with a high-speed material. The machine pushes out the heavier substances.
  • Electrolyte analyzer: Electrolyte analyzers are used to measure electrolyte levels in the human body and to detect metabolic imbalances and measure renal and cardiac function. For blood plasma, serum, or urine samples, electrolyte analyzers are used. By using ion-selective electrodes, Electrolytes are measured with colorimetric and photometric techniques.
  • Hematology Analyser / Cell counter: Hematology analyzers are automated systems that count leucocytes, red cells, and platelets in the blood, and also check the level of hemoglobin and hematocrit in the blood. Some automated systems count leucocytes, red cells, and blood platelets. The hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the Blood are also monitored in the diagnostic center. The CBC can be used to detect a wide range of pathological states including anemia, infection, hemophilia, blood-clotting disorders, and leukemia, as well as to monitor the patient who is undergoing chemotherapy
  • Urine analyzer: Automatic urine testing like Bilirubin, protein, glucose, and red blood cells are analyzed in the urine analyzer.
  • Incubator: An incubator is used for the development and preservation of microbiological cultures or cell cultures. It maintains optimal temperature, humidity, and other conditions, including carbon dioxide (CO2) and the indoor oxygen content.
  • A variety of tests, including cancer markers, infectious disease diagnoses, cardiac analysis, and allergy testing, can be performed.
  • Some electrical devices use a thermostat to sterilize in a diagnostic center.

Imaging Equipment Requirement:

  • X-ray Machine: X rays are electromagnetic radiation that penetrates within the body structures, and on a film or a fluorescent screen creates images of such structures.
  • CR Machine: It makes digital imagery to save time and efficiency.
  • Ultrasound: It allows the transmission of sound waves as images to a computer screen.
  • Mammography Machine: To diagnose, examine the breast of the human being.
